For my Sister

After much hesitation, my sister started a blog this week. She had been talking about it for months- worrying that her voice or writing wasn't strong or captivating enough. I encouraged her, believing that everything she has to say holds great worth and importance. She recently had a beautiful baby girl, Harper Lynne on March 15 2010. Jordan's life changed the moment she got pregnant and from a distance I've admired and cherished it. Watching her grow into an amazing Mom in such a short amount of time and seeing how being pregnant changed her perspective on life inspired me to have a baby too.

In continuation of following in Jordan's footsteps, I decided to move forward with blogging myself. I've owned my own cafe since August 27th, 2007  and always thought having a blog to share the experiences that happen here, in front of and behind the counter, would be so cathartic. Located in a small small city, where people are gossip obsessed and inadvertently in your shit all of the time, I figured it would have a good following. Not to mention, I do have a degree in Print Journalism that has NEVER been used- which I will prove to you with my less than accurate grammar, punctuation and run-on sentences. Poor writing aside, I hope my experiences in life, learning how to Mother, Wife and Own a business help you laugh at yourself- which I try to do often.
